Produktbeschreibung
The scholarly field of Critical Management Studies (CMS) is in a state of flux. Against a backdrop of dramatic global shifts, CMS scholarship has lately taken a number of new and exciting directions and, at times, challenged older critical voices. Novel theoretical frameworks and diverse research interests mark the CMS field as never before. Interrogating conventional critiques of management and arguing for fresh approaches, The Routledge Companion to Critical Management Studies captures this intellectual ferment and new spirit of inquiry within CMS, and showcases the pluralistic generation of CMS scholars that has emerged in recent years.

Setting the scene for a crucial period for the discipline, this insightful volume covers new ground and essential areas grouped under the following themes:

Critique and its (dis-)contentsDifference, otherness, marginalityKnowledge at the crossroadsHistory and discourseGlobal predicaments.

Drawing on the expertise of an international team of contributing scholars, The Routledge Companion to Critical Management Studies is a rich resource and the perfect reference tool for students and researchers of management and organization.

Rezensionen
'This is an utterly unique and compelling project. Unlike every other handbook on critical organizational studies that seeks to institutionalize and consequently reify disciplinary knowledge, the editors have successfully realised a project that significantly challenges, revises, pluralizes and expands the terrain of critical management studies. Their highly effective canonical intervention proceeds by centralizing issues hitherto considered relatively peripheral to CMS, including postcoloniality, feminism, indigeneity, masculinity and sexuality, and the contributors to the six sections of the handbook take on these issues in multiple and creative ways.' - Shiv Ganesh, Professor of Communication, Massey University, New Zealand

'This Companion provides an unflinching and provocative critique of the 'First World CMS Industry', making for sometimes uncomfortable but always important, lucid and stimulating reading. It is a book which anyone interested in CMS needs to read.' - Jo Brewis, Professor of Organization and Consumption, University of Leicester, UK

'An important and comprehensive volume that expands the contributions of CMS scholarship to management and organization studies. This will be required reading for any scholar interested in the major debates of CMS and management studies more broadly.' - Dennis K. Mumby, Cary C. Boshamer Distinguished Professor of Communication, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA

'With Critical Management Studies now been firmly established in the field of management studies the struggle against intra-disciplinary ossification and dogmatism should begin. This book offers an excellent choice of themes and author constellations, and it addresses a diverse range of topics previously subject to only modest scholarly attention. This volume thus paves the way for the next generation of students and researchers anxious to explore the wider consequences of managerial ideologies and practices.' - Alexander Styhre, Chair of Organization & Management, School of Business, Economics, and Law, University of Gothenburg, Sweden
